I need a replacement rear/middle row belt buckle assembly for my MY16 Smax

Seen a few online at ford parts and ebay but they say not compatible with my model 

Ford dealer gave me a quote for over £90 F2328049

 Pretty sure it's this https://shop.ford.co.uk/products/galaxy-s-max-wa6-rear-seat-belt-buckle?variant=40406742630469&currency=GBP&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAw5W-BhAhEiwApv4goHTvHheTV85B01W9hBV2QI1E5N5grERZMZeq38__euz-62F4ldLyNRoClpcQAvD_BwE

 

But would like to see if anyone can confirm please

    The part number is totally different on the Ford Store link.  I don't know if it's compatible and wouldn't like to risk it with safety equipment.

    The proper one is currently discounted on eBay to £67.

    The engineering number is EM2BR60045PAW on the casing if that makes any difference?

    Thanks, that confirms it as the more expensive one.  Although engineering numbers aren't shown on the Ford Store, they are shown on their eBay store, so we can now be sure the cheap one isn't even close.

    Thanks, ordered. Is there any instructions on how to replace it these?

    You might find a decent video on YouTube.  It should just be one bolt for the buckle itself, though I don't know how easy it is to access.  Does the whole rear seat base lift up on these or are they individual seats?

    Yes they angle forward and slide too! There's a plastic cover so il try pop it open.

    Anyone know if the whole seat needs to be removed? Got the bolt off with a T50 but couldn't find a way to get the assembly out
